This question actually took some thinking on how to explain it correctly. I'd want a god because of the protection, not only of the body, but the soul as well. .




So for the body protection, you're basically asking god to provide you a better luck factor. Some people have this very high luck factor when it comes to close death experiences. Some people survive to airplane crashes one day and the next die is having another accident on the car. Like the guy that was hit 7 times by a lighting in his life. Does these guys had some sort of divine protection? I don't think so, just a very high luck factor in close to death situations.

God want to cure your cancer. But only if you pray lots and lots. Oh, and he's very sorry he gave it to you in the first place :lol: bold joke.

Why would a soul need protection? From the ghostbusters? I just don't get it.

Atheism is a religion - they're organized & they admit there is a god by denying his existence which is contradicting . Atheist answer to themselves and I'd never tell myself to kill another being in my own name , but GOD - people start wars and kill thousands over god . Atheists seem more peaceful than Christians.

I'm sure anyone who is familiar with Richard Dawkins has probably seen this vid, but for those who don't know him, he's an evolutionary biologist and atheist as well.

He's interviewing this creationist Wendy Wright, and I have the utmost respect for him here for keeping his cool and not blasting her in the face. It's an hour long interview, but it doesn't take long for anyone to want to punch this woman square in the nose. It's as if he was set up to snap and punch her and ruin his career. To hear this woman just shit all over his profession, and deny all aspects of evolution basically calling him a liar is mind-boggling.

Despite loving some of the books he has written, I think Dawkins is a huge dick.
And then you see an interview like this one, and all is understood & forgiven.

EDIT: I hate people like her so much! They always pretend to have this air of respectability, piety and maturity but anyone can see right trough that act into the raging dickmonster that they actually are!
Fuck fundies, those inhuman bastards!

She's just going on and on how there is no evidence, and Dawkins is like, yeah there is, and tells her about it... and she fucking IGNORES it because it doesn't fit into the neat little narrative she has in her head!
This is the true face of religious indoctrination... a grinning fool echoing the thoughts of others.

It was like trying to reason with a three year old. Uncharacteristic behavior for any other atheist put in his shoes at that time and place. Much respect.

I have seen lots of Dawkins debates. I don't see the dickery of Dawkins, he is just defending his posture and he do it very respectfully.

I can't stand this guy Deepak chopra. He is just playing with words nobody understand what he is saying. Look this debate of Dawkins vs chopra and you'll laugh.



Or this one, you'll laugh even more.

Seeing Atheists poke fun at religious people is always funny.  You need to have faith to believe in either.

No dickery from Dawkins. I was only saying that he was acting unlike any other atheist that would have been talking to that idiot woman. Even Hitchens would have punched her out, but I think he would have ripped her so bad she'd be in tears.

I saw your top vid, and the best part was when Chopra claimed that single cell organisms have consciousness and have feelings. Richard's head just about explodes having to argue with him. Chopra is in some cartoon fairytale world in his head with that one.

I have a 5 min excerpt with that part. Just the look on his face as Deepak drones on is priceless.




Here's another creationist that can't accept it when Dawkins throws out the reference of a billion years in the past. Richard explains the evolution of the eye so beautifully until he hits this guys creationist wall at the 4:45 mark. Priceless

Because its a simple conclusion to draw.  I don't know if there is an alien on another planet somewhere that has semen that tastes similar to strawberries, and I think it's silly to speculate.

A simple but wrong conclusion. Just because it is simple doesn't mean it's right.
And speculating about things is always a good excersize, I just don't understand why alien semen was your go-to example...

That's pretty cool. I like what Bill Hicks said, about all of this just being a ride. It rang true to me, somehow.

I just don't think the poll has enough options and "bible bullshit" I find that a bit offensive and feel you could've put it in a more polite way but if that's how you feel that's ok. Don't get me wrong I'm not one of those Christians that believe all atheist are evil and all that I have plenty of friends who are atheist or of another religion and they're great people and I don't annoy them and try to convert em but  let them know if they ever do decide they want to become Christians I'll be there for em.
I believe in God and read the bible but don't go to church regularly and definitely don't agree with most other Christians view on alcohol and drugs. The way I see it all a Christian has to do is accept Christ and believe and live the way they feel is right and how they interpret the bible not the way they're told to believe by anyone else but that's  just the way I look at things.
As for the belief the Earth is only 6/10 thousand years old I don't see how they get that from anything I feel that only only a small precentage of Christians believe this and it has become a unwanted sorta sterotype for many of us because a lot of us are educated logical and tolerant individuals.

I respect your beliefs all I ask is you respect other's. :smile:

Chopra is a charlatan. I don't know how he could sell more than 20 million books, i guess people like to read what they won't understand.

Oh man i can see youtube videos in my work, but is that guy that at the end of the video he is asking to dawkins how we end up releasing waste? lol. Even the most primitive bacteria have the ability to release waste, what a dumb question. how people could be that ignorant.

Is the same if you say "all the atheist bullshit". You can say it if you want i won't be offended at all. that's another thing, religious people get easily offended. Of course if we were in a real life debate i won't say such things like bible bullshit i would be more polite, but we are in a forum nobody of us know each other, we are a bunch of stoners and nobody have to get offended here by saying bible bullshit. I said it in the first posts, if you are religious and you'll get easily offended please don't discuss in this thread or you'll find this thread even more offensive.
